Ms Grainne Morrison:

I suppose 85% of the people in our group would say that having a diagnosis of autism would have a negative impact. We will be told that that is not an autistic trait and it will go back to the CDNT, even though most people who are autistic will have a higher prevalence for OCD, PTSD and eating disorders, which are all very high. They are the mainstays of CAMHS anyway.
